Brooklyn is the flavor of the week, a bad team with a surprising three-game win streak. However, two of the games were at home and the lone road win was the last game at the 28-50 76ers. Let's not forget Brooklyn is second to last in points allowed, getting beat by -6.3 points per game -- second worst in the NBA. The Nets are 4-13 ATS when following a straight-up win of more than 10 points. Orlando is home from a three-game trip. 21-year-old Aaron Gordon moved to power forward when Serge Ibaka was traded and he keeps getting better. Gordon is averaging 19 points and 8.6 rebounds over the past five games, including 32 points, 16 rebounds against Boston on Friday and 22 points and 15 boards against the Nets on Saturday. Gordon has scored in double-digits in 17 of the past 19 games. Brooklyn is also 3-7-1 ATS against Orlando, so back the undervalued home court and play Orlando.
